Melissa Ann Graham-Hurd

While divorce is a painful and intimidating experience, Melissa Graham-Hurd and her team of associates made me feel empowered and secure from our first consultation. This legal team reviewed my situation thoroughly and provided carefully informed options for me to pursue, all while prioritizing the b...est interests of my young children. In fact, they never lost sight of this priority throughout all proceedings and helped my ex-spouse and I come to terms that best served the needs of our kids through this traumatic family change--which is particularly significant because one of our sons has special needs. It has been a year and a half since M. Graham-Hurd represented me in finalizing this marriage dissolution, separation and parenting agreements, and today, my kids and I are happy, secure, and moving on with our new lives, and my ex-spouse and I co-parent cooperatively and communicate effectively. This is the best possible outcome for what started out as a spiraling abyss of sadness, insecurity and uncertainty. I attribute this positive outcome to M. Graham Hurd's knowledge of family law, her organized approach, and focus on the well-being of my kids.

Melissa Graham Hurd and Assoc. helped our family with a step daughter adoption. Melissa is very knowledgeable in this area and provided lots of information on how the process works. The staff and Melissa were very quick to respond to emails and answer any questions we had. Our adoption was completed ...in a very timely manner and we are so happy! Highly recommend Melissa and her staff!

Melissa and her team were excellent! This was my first experience with needing legal representation and they did a wonderful job explaining things in a way that I could understand them during my initial consult. Once we were into the divorce process, she was able to handle all of my daily questions a...nd concerns in a timely and professional manner. I have heard horror stories about fathers being treated less than fair by the court system and Melissa made sure this was not the case for me. She was upfront and honest with me while giving me great advice and direction along the way. She knows her stuff and seemed to be one step ahead at all times. She is a prefect example of "you get what you pay for". I highly, highly recommend Melissa and her team.

Out of nowhere my wife handed me dissolution papers. She had been dealing with a lawyer and was wanting me to sign the papers. I needed a lawyer fast, so I contacted Melissa’s firm. They did an over the phone consultation (covid restrictions were in effect at the time). They listened to my story and ...said they could help. Throughout the process they explained things to me and helped me to not get taken advantage of. They were very good at responding to emails and phone calls, and were always very helpful. After the dissolution was finalized and the case “closed” they have been available to me to answer some other questions that I have had. I am very happy with their service would definitely use them again should the need arise. I highly recommend them.
